This work presents the dynamic modeling of an automotive turbocharger in a hot gas test stand. The objective is to develop a methodology to determine the main turbocharger dynamic properties as moment of inertia, response time, static gain constant, frequency gain amplitude and phase shift. The turbocharger used is the Master Power APL-240 set. The moment of inertia is obtained through the deceleration curve from an instantaneous fuel cut-off in the combustion chamber. The response time and static gain constant, as well the frequency gain amplitude and phase shift curves in function of a signal frequency, are obtained through a step variation. The turbocharger is modeled as a first order system. It is also presented a turbocharger sine excitation by the combustion chamber, generating a rotational speed sine signal output that simulates an engine intermittent acceleration. The rotational speed signal frequency gain and phase shift are compared to the values obtained in the step curves. The rotational speed frequency gain amplitude and phase shift modeled through the step test presents deviation of 16% and 13%, respectively, from the values from sine test.

Most of industrial process can be approximately represented as first-order plus delay time (FOPDT) model or second-order plus delay time (FOPDT) model. From a control point of view, it is important to estimate the FOPDT or SOPDT model parameters from arbitrary process input as groomed test like step test is not always feasible. Orthonormal basis function (OBF) are class of model structure having many advantages, and its parameters can be estimated from arbitrary input data. The OBF model filters are functions of poles and hence accuracy of the model depends on the accuracy of the poles. In this paper, a simple and standard particle swarm optimisation technique is first employed to estimate the dominant discrete poles from arbitrary input and corresponding process output. Time constant of first order system or period of oscillation and damping ratio of second order system is calculated from the dominant poles. From the step response of the developed OBF model, time delay and steady state gain are estimated. The parameter accuracy is improved by employing an iterative scheme. Numerical examples are provided to show the accuracy of the proposed method.

Abstract Some structural properties as well as a general three-dimensional boundary value problem for normally hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations of first order are studied. A condition is given which enables one to reduce the system under consideration to a first-order system with the spliced principal part. It is shown that the initial problem is correct in a certain class of functions if some conditions are fulfilled.

Abstract A second-order diffusion scheme is developed for the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) global shallow-water model. The shallow-water equations are discretized on the cubed sphere tiled with quadrilateral elements relying on a nonorthogonal curvilinear coordinate system. In the viscous shallow-water model the diffusion terms (viscous fluxes) are approximated with two different approaches: 1) the element-wise localized discretization without considering the interelement contributions and 2) the discretization based on the local discontinuous Galerkin (LDG) method. In the LDG formulation the advection–diffusion equation is solved as a first-order system. All of the curvature terms resulting from the cubed-sphere geometry are incorporated into the first-order system. The effectiveness of each diffusion scheme is studied using the standard shallow-water test cases. The approach of element-wise localized discretization of the diffusion term is easy to implement but found to be less effective, and with relatively high diffusion coefficients, it can adversely affect the solution. The shallow-water tests show that the LDG scheme converges monotonically and that the rate of convergence is dependent on the coefficient of diffusion. Also the LDG scheme successfully eliminates small-scale noise, and the simulated results are smooth and comparable to the reference solution.

Reset controllers consist of two parts—a linear compensator and a reset element. The linear compensator is designed, in the usual ways, to meet all closed-loop performance specifications while relaxing the overshoot constraint. Then, the reset element is chosen to meet this remaining step-response specification. In this paper, we consider the case when such linear compensation results in a second-order (loop) transfer function and where a first-order reset element (FORE) is employed. We analyze the closed-loop reset control system addressing performance issues such as stability, steady-state response, and transient performance.
